CADDIES: Caddies are permitted for the event.  They must agree to walk unless there is an available seat in one of the player’s carts. Caddies riding in a cart MUST NOT displace a player.

 

GOLF CARTS: The use of golf carts is included in the registration fee; however, players are permitted to walk if interested.  AGA Cart policy (maximum of two riders per cart and maximum of two carts per group) will be enforced.   

 

In addition, the following policies will be enforced:

  • Spectator carts are not permitted for insurance reasons, NO EXCEPTIONS.
  • Carts are assigned only to contestants.  A caddie may use a cart only if a contestant is not displaced by such use.
  • Restrictions on cart use for players are at the discretion of the Host Site and all players are bound by those requirements, subject to withdrawal for violations of that policy.  Any such restrictions will be posted at the tournament site.
  • Carts must be kept on paths if available near greens and tees.
  • Any non-player riding with a player is considered a caddie and subject to any potential Rules violations.
  • Pull carts are permitted as long as not in conflict with the Host Club rules.
